  This is the worst tree or plant growing company out there. Their trees and plants are c*** They do not grow. And one of my raspberries died and they would not send me a new raspberry to replace it. They kept wanting more and more pictures of it. They kept saying they would have to see what else could be done to save it. It was clear from the pictures it was dead. It had dead leaves and a black stem. Then I tried to delete my online account. There is no place to delete my account and I emailed them to ask them to delete it and they never returned my email. If I could give them zero stars, I would.

  We sincerely apologize that your raspberry did not recover and you were unable to get assistance with the warranty. Since we sell live plants, we do request photos to assist. We want to ensure that the plants are set up for success in their new home. If you forward updated photos to ********************************** we will be happy to see how we can assist.

  Fast growing trees company has questionable quality trees and misleading advertising. We bought a Montmorency Cherry Tree that is supposed to produce "buckets of juicy cherries with a uniquely tart flavor". It is claimed to be "low-maintenance and thrives in a variety of soils across the country" and produce fruit in the first year. The 4-foot tree was planted in our backyard under full sun as they advise. It grew about 5 inches, and did not bear any blooms for 4 years. Weve successfully grown blueberries, peaches and lemons in our backyard therefore the soil is not an issue.

  We are so sorry that your Montmorency cherry tree has not bloomed or produced over the years. There can be so many environmental factors that can affect the production of fruit trees. If it is not blooming, this would likely be caused by the tree not getting enough chill hours or sunlight. The Montmorency needs about 600 to 700 chill hours and full sun in order to produce. You can help with fruit production by fertilizing with a low nitrogen fertilizer starting in early spring before bloom, 5-10-10, or organic fruit tree fertilizer, or compost. Please reach out to us directly if we can be of additional assistance.

  I purchased several items along with the warranty in May and June however, when I needed to use the warranty I have been ghosted. I filled out the online forms with photos and order numbers however, weeks later have heard nothing. I would not recommend.

  Hello,Yes, I have received one phone call after I made my experience public and my lost money of dead plants. I have called numerous times to talk to this employee however I keep being told, "******** isnt available." So, that's my review, nobody is available to actually help you get your money back.

  **BUYER BEWARE** New to writing reviews so here we go.... Purchased 2 bamboo plants from FastGrowingTrees.com that were indicated on their website as 5 to 6-feet tall for $200+. Received 2 sickly/sparse-looking plants that consisted of 5 shoots apiece with 4 of the 5 shoots being no more than 15-inches tall and a single dangly-looking stalk roughly 5-feet tall. Plants were completely misrepresented on the FastGrowingTrees.com website, which showed healthy, full-looking plants, rather than what I, the buyer, would actually receive. Contacted FastGrowingTrees.com regarding my issue and was told the website shows mature, end-state plants so buyers can see what the plant will eventually look like, not the plant you will actually receive. I pointed out to the representative that this was intentionally deceptive as the website could easily show a single photo of the plant you can expect to receive (yes, plants are all unique but a photo showing the basic size of a plant is not difficult). In the end, if you order from *********************************** closely look at what you are ordering from them as the site is deceptive with its photos - what you see may not be what you get (as what happened to me). Moreover, their prices are consistent with what a healthy/full plant would cost so while the price I paid them gave me the initial thought that I was getting a healthy/full plant (i.e. I paid a premium (high) price - $200+), what I received from FastGrowingTrees.com was not worth the money I spent - $200+ for 2 sickly/sparse-looking plants advertised as 5-6 feet tall but far from that. FastGrowingTrees.com was no help; completely disappointed. Buyer beware! Buyer Beware!ZERO STARS (had to select one star in order to get this review posted)

  We sincierly apologize that the bamboo was not as expected on arrival. Many of the product photos show more mature plants in landscapes to give an idea of what the plant will look like once established in their new home. We do also have customer review photos on the product pages which show plants our customer have received as well. Let us know if we can be of additional assistance.

  They sent us a 7 foot tree with no foliage and cut the top completely off leaving no growth in April. Called they said that it is dormant, to fertilize, and essentially wait. I waited until this spring still no growth and its officially dead. Missed the deadline (July) and they refuse to send even a small tree to make up for the misleading advice and a tree that was never going to prosper. I have photos and they still refuse to rectify.

  This is my first time ordering from here and was a bit optimistic. I received my plants and shrubs on time. I planted them over a month ago and they are all doing great. I will purchase from them again and do recommend them for future reference.

  Plants were slightly damaged, no more than probably expected but one of the more expensive ones did not survive the damage.

  I spent thousands with this company this year. They have sent diseased sick trees and plants. When I tried to start a refund they make it absolutely impossible. So, their guarantee is a flat out lie. I would not purchase one more plant or tree from those company. Buyer beware.

  Bought 3 blue fescue grass plants that were way overpriced at the $127 I paid for the puny little half dead plants I received. Two of them never took and died. The first replacement I was charged another $9 shipping for the first one that arrived smushed. When the second one was pronounced **** a week or so later, my wife said shed find us the next one locally, which only cost about $15!The one we bought locally actually has the blue tint to it, but the 2 remaining grass plants from FGTs, just look equally green and brown. i,e., like cr@p. Ill never buy from here again

  I was disappointed with the packaging. The plants were not very secure and there were many broken branches. other than that, the order and delivery was good. I hope that better care is used to package and ship product in the future. I am somewhat reluctant to order more plants.
